A Wonderful Surprise

Venice









Ireland


Some of you may know (from my post last year) my dream to go to Ireland.
My wonderful hubby, Rich has done all the planning
and arrangements ..and WE ARE GOING.

We'll be leaving in September..going to Italy & Ireland.
I've never been out of the country before and I am so
excited.
Our flight going to Italy and coming back
from Ireland are long. I know I can do it. I told
my Oncologist we were going and she gave me some
meds to take with me.

We'll be gone for quite a few days..our fat kat will be
staying with my older daughter, so we don't need
to worry about her.

I am not taking my laptop with me, Rich is taking his.
I will have my camera and a cell phone that works
abroad. (so will Rich)

I feel sooooooo blessed to be able to live my dream, we are
not wealthy by far, but we found a way to fund the trip ..I may not live
forever, so we want to go now.

We'll see Vatican City , kiss the Blarney Stone & lots of
fun adventures.

Please pray for safe travel for us.

Please also continue to PRAY FOR HUNTER


Much love to all of you and thanks for your prayers that
have made me healthy enough to travel.

Trust the Journey













Not to worry my dear friends. ..I am here and well
I have only 5 radiation treatments left
so next Tuesday will be my LAST !!

After that..just watching and testing me
(every two months for the brain, every three
months for the heart and every three weeks for 
blood tests)

and the continuing Herceptin & Zometa
every three weeks.

I lost my spirit for a bit, too tired to do anything
or even care about doing stuff. I realized then, I just 
have to trust my journey.

I have gotten some sweet gifts the past 2 weeks also
bringing me much joy. My friend Sally ..made a "Little Book of Joys"
as I was finding it hard to find some.  I don't know why..I am not
depressed ..just tired.  This too has passed.

I have a list of things to help  a friend through her journey

Call to chat
Stop by to do laundry
Take her a milk shake
Cook a meal for her & the family
Get manicures & pedicures together
Wash her car
Add her to prayer chains
Ice cream sundaes are always fun
Shampoo her hair

 Please Share your joys with me
& art you've been working on
